Lauren - me when they try to stimmed me... all my follies were disapearing imagine... so that was a dead end really quick :) they tried 2 consecutive months and NOTHING. So glad at least you get something :)

nicliz - thanks for the congrats. I did the other test this morning but I think I messed up so I have to ask now :( So ER tomorrow. Great I can't wait to see that... I am praying for you too girl.

Lauren - so how was the test this morning ? Any light BFP?

Lauren1171 - yes it's going to be ok and you are going to get your BFP real soon now. I can't wait :)

Waiting - so tomorrow is ER just like nicliz wow fun. Can't wait to see your results. Keep up the good work.

amanda - I also pray you are pregnant. 5 more days that is long. But hang in there girl... the weekend will pass really fast :) I know it's worrysome to have only one emby but someone here got pg with one so hang in there. I think it's Angela... so remember late implantation is ok too so you might not see your BFP :)

Franca - your picture it so cute you guys look SO happy together :)

emmax - you were at the hospital again. Boy you are keeping busy... way to go girl for seeing baby's heart :)

Angela - how are you and beany doing?

AFM - I forgot my ultrasound was Tuesday NOT Thursday. It was April 27th. Anyways they did it this morning and were worried about me on Tuesday... how silly was I. I have so much in my mind. So here are the results of my bean scan today measuring 2.65, hb of 175 and 9w3d pg.

They gave me the IPS test forms to see if everything is ok with baby and so I have to put donw the mom's date of birth :) cute. We do that between week 11 and 13. So I will be booking that today :)

Also I packed the office last night and I found my dropplet. Thank God... I was able to find my baby's heartbeat so I was not too worried anymore. I am so happy I found it :)

I guess cause the one you got must me a more sensitive one. Go ahead and use it the way they say it should be used :) Let us know what results you get... I am so anxious to know.

Ladies,

I'm pregnant!!!! My nurse just called with my beta results :lol: :D. She said everything looks good. I'm 10dp5dt and my beta is 149. I asked her why so high, she said it was good. I said does this mean it's twins? She said the only thing it means is that you're pregnant!! So I'm going to take this and be happy. I go back in on Monday and now I'm praying it continues to go up!! Please keep me in your prayers!!

Hi Debbie,

There are quite a few women nearing the end of their 2ww (I am one of them...got my BFP today); however, there are other ladies getting ready to do ER & ET.

Good Luck!

Amazing... !!!!!!!!!!!! I am overjoyed for you girl!!!!!!!!!!! congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And no I don't think it means twins remember mine was 426 and it is only one... And my beta was early also only 11 days I think so that would be probably one day difference or so ... so I think single. But if you want twins I am hoping for twins for you.

So happy for you dear.

Helene,

Thank you. I'm not praying for twins. I'd like 1 but I will take whatever God has in store for me. Did you do a 5dt or a 3dt. I'm happy with the number and am anxious to see what it will be on Monday.

Thanks,

Natakia - I knew everything would turn out fine for you. I just felt it ... congratulations. BTW- I think it is a singleton also. But, during my first cycle my first beta was 151 and I was pregnant w/ twins, so you never know by just looking at beta numbers. We will have to wait and see what your u/s tells us! Welcome to the pregnant club ... lol!

I did a 3d. My embies are 3d frozen embies. Don't want to let them go to 5 days too afraid of loosing them :)

Congrats again.

Lauren – Yes, it says you can test 6 days before your missed period because w/ natural pregnancies several women will ovulate and implant at different times. So it is very hard to pinpoint the times when they start to secrete HCG so it can be detected on a HPT.

You are still testing early which is fine if you want to ease your mind. But, since we had IVF, everything is a little more controlled and they have a better idea when we ovulate (because of the ER) and possibly when we will implant. According to the chart for IVF, you will not start to secrete HCG until 8dpt3dt. So that is tomorrow but keep in mind that, that is when you just start to secrete HCG so it could take a few more days to show up on a HPT. So don’t give up and keep your PMA!!!

Ladies – sorry for the no personals today. It is going to be such a long day as I have a dinner scheduled with several of my doctors’ tonight so I just wanted everyone to know I am thinking of you and praying for everyone! I just have to try to stay awake long enough this evening … lol!

AFM – I had another beta test done today because of the scare I had the other night w/ the sharp pain and it was 5,558, which increased from 2607 on Monday. My RE was happy w/ those results. My progesterone is still a little high at 178.1 … to be honest I wish it remained high because I would know my little one is doing fine. So now the longgggggggggg wait until Monday for our first u/s to see our little baby!
